Syncing Iphone to Windows 7 and Outlook...

I recently formatted my PC and thought that I had exported all my details from Microsoft Outlook in the correct pst file, turns out I only exported my calender....My contacts and Calender however are still safe on my Iphone....Basically what I want to know is, is there a way to connect my iphone and for itunes to read my iphone and put all the info it has stored ie, music, contacts, calender etc...back into the correct places, am I right in thinking that If I sync my ipod to itunes now it will read Outlook, see there are no contacts and basically wipe the contacts from my phone?
Many thanks
Wayne

Basically what I want to know is, is there a way to connect my iphone and for itunes to read my iphone and put all the info it has stored ie, music, contacts, calender etc...back into the correct places, am I right in thinking that If I sync my ipod to itunes now it will read Outlook, see there are no contacts and basically wipe the contacts from my phone?
With contacts and calendar events, yes, but not with any iTunes content. The sync process for iTunes content is a one way transfer process only. No iTunes content is kept synchronized as is possible with contacts and calendar events with a supported application on your computer.
Before syncing contacts and calendar events with Outlook, enter one contact and one calendar event in Outlook. Make these up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first. By reformatting your PC which is a regular and required procedure with Windows, your computer is now detected as a new or different computer by your iPhone.
Did you include your iTunes library with your computer's backup? If so and you followed the simple instructions included with this link for doing so and restored your iTunes library from said backup, no iTunes content on your iPhone will be erased with the first sync. Your computer will not be detected as a new of different computer now.

If you didn't include your iTunes library with your computer's backup, iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only. First you need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.

Hey there slc9999,
It sounds like you are not able to sync your outlook contacts to your iPhone. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article to help get that resolved, named:

Dozens of open tabs lost! Synced them, reinstalled Windows and Firefox, set up Sync, looked up "tabs on other devices" in history - Only a third or so listed.

Dozens of open tabs lost! Synced them, reinstalled Windows and Firefox, set up Sync, looked up "tabs on other devices" in history -> Only a third or so listed.
Usually, when I reinstall Windows, I manually backup my Firefox bookmarks and open tabs, but because Sync has worked perfectly for me in the past, I didn't do it this time. I backed up all my other files and settings and whatnot from the rest of my system, then in Firefox I hit the Sync button (put in on the GUI so I see if it's syncing or done) for the last time, waited until the green rotating dot was gone, closed Firefox, shut down the system, formatted the drive and reinstalled Windows and Firefox. After setting up Sync I waited a while to make sure everything is on my system.
Then I wanted to have all the tabs and windows open as I had on the old system, so I went to the history and "tabs on other devices". I could already see from the small size of the list, that tabs were missing. I went through all of them, opened them and sorted them into windows.
-> Maybe about two thirds of the tabs I had open on my old system are gone!
Not just new tabs that might not have been synced (although the button showed sync was complete), but also old tabs (from weeks ago) that must have been synced before. Actually maybe especially or even only the old ones are lost. And the lost tabs are not just from one of the open windows, but from several.
What can I do to recover my lost tabs?
They contain important websites that I didn't bookmark yet, articles that I wanted to read, windows with dozens of tabs on a topic that I did some research for and stuff like that.
What does the green circle mean? Does it indicate that the sync is complete (to the Firefox servers) or just that the changes have been saved locally and set up for some next scheduled sync with the Firefox servers?
Further info:
I always run the newest stable release of Firefox (v19 on both systems). Old system was Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation, new system is Windows 8 Pro. My used Sync quota is about 10 MB. I had 4 Firefox windows open with different amount of tabs in each of them, from 10 to maybe 80 with an overall amount of 150-200. Most of them weren't loaded. Firefox start is set to "load last session" and tabs are set to "load when selected". Memory usage 500 MB - 1 GB.

I have most of the items bookmarked. Having 200 - 300 tabs open saves time, since I don't have to go to the bookmarks, if the tabs are already open. One problem has been crashes, but as long as I can restore a previous session, I can still get to the data. I had quite a few tabs open when I was planning to purchase a new computer. I also follow the stock market, and the weather. I was also looking at various VIrtual Private Networking (VPN) sites. At one time, I probably had 20 - 50 tabs open, just for those. I did bookmark a few, but unfortunately lost the VPN tabs, when Firefox crashed. Even if I don`t go to a particular group of tabs very often, leaving it open is faster, especially since I will know where they are. I often put the computer in standby mode, rather than shutting it off, especially if I will remain in the same location.

Sync ical to google and outlook cal.

Hi, if I create a event, appt, or anything in ical, can i sync it to google and outlook cal's. or if i create an event in outlook or google cal first can i sync it to all other calenders. If possible how do I co-exsist all 3 calenders.

Hia.
The only way i got this to work (not flawless) was to make a new callendar in Googlecal and then add it to iCal. This way it autosync when adding/removing nodes.
Edit:
Like described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2365828&tstart=30

I found out the following method. Highlight a specific calendar in iCal and go to Edit/export and save it on your desktop. Then go to Gmail calendar and choose import and choose the .isc calendar from your desktop and it will load into Gmail. At least it did for me. I think that the trick is to choose one calendar not the whole list. Let me know.

Problems syncing iPhone 4S contacts and calendar with Outlook 2007

Hello. I am having difficulties syncing my iPhone 4S Contacts and Calendar with Outlook 2007. It used to work perfectly with my iPhone 4, but now I am having difficulties both ways. That is, I add something to my Outlook 2007 Calendar, sync in iTunes, but it doesn't appear in my iPhone. Or, I add a Contact to my iPhone, sync in iTunes, but it doesn't appear in Outlook 2007. I believe I have the iTunes settings correct.

Me too. Think it is since 6.1.3.
Interesting other quirk is that as well as NOT syncing my calendar, it also unticks my calendar from pc on the iphone.
When ii retick it, i get the calendar back, but as it was before the sync, ie, it does not have the bnew events from my pc in it.
This is a 2 way problem.
New events on my iphone wont sync to my pc, and new events on my pc wont sync to my iphone.

How to sync iPhone/iPad contacts TO Outlook?

I am confused by the cavalier way the term "sync" is bandied about in the MS Outlook/Apple iTunes context.
I want to make my Outlook contacts look just like my iPhone contacts. I.e., after a sync, I don't want any contact info in one device that's not in the other.
In the past, "sync" has meant to me "make them both the same." But the mechanism whereby that occurs is not obvious in the context of iTunes and MS Office. For instance, when iTunes is syncing, what happens if a contact's name is in both the PC and iPhone, but the email addresses are different? Am I offered the opportunity to make a choice? What happens if Outlook contains an entry that's not on the phone? Will it end up on the iPhone? What happens if a contact is in the phone, but not in Outlook - will it get created in Outlook?
I consider my phone the primary device for accumulating contact information. As a consequence, my Outlook contacts are woefully out of date vis-a-vis my iPhone's. But I am sore afraid to engage the iTunes syncing, lest it somehow decide that what I want to do is replace the contacts on my iPhone with those from Outlook. I've seen too many comments elsewhere about contacts being lost wholesale, or duplicated wholesale.
Is there any definitive source for further detailed information on this subject?

Here is the way about how to transfer contacts from iPhone to Outlook:
Step 1: Connect the iPhone to the computer using the supplied USB cable and launch the iTunes application. iTunes displays your iPhone on the left panel under "Devices".
Step 2: Click your iPhone on the iTunes panel and click the "Info" tab. Click "Sync contacts with" and select "Outlook."
Step 3: Select "All Contacts" if you want to sync all the contacts from your iPhone to Outlook. If you want to select specific contacts, click "Selected groups" and place a check on the contacts you want to sync to Outlook.
Step 4: Click "Apply" to sync your iPhone contacts to Outlook. Click the "Eject" button on the right panel and disconnect your phone from the computer. Close iTunes.
Step 5: Launch Outlook and click the "Contacts" tab. You should see the imported iPhone contacts.

Problems Syncing iPhone 4S with MS Outlook 2010 after years of no problems

For several years, I have sync'ed my iPhone 4S regularly and flawlessly using itunes with my Windows 7 desktop that was running Outlook 2010.
Last week, disaster struck and my hard drive failed and had to be replaced. Luckily, my backup drive had everything on it, so I replaced the failed drive, then copied my outlook.pst file back on the new drive, as well as all my iTunes songs. Outlook and Itunes were installed for a fresh start.
Unfortunately, I tried to sync my iPhone with the "new" computer today, and the process seems to get stuck at the "Syncing contacts (Step 3 of 7)" during the syncing procedure. It has been at that phase in the process for over 3 hours? Will I hurt the files if I cancel the process?
I there anyway to fix this? Syncing the iphone with outlook is an essential feature.
Are there settings to start with a computer with a new hard disk, but all the old data?
Please help!

I have 3 iPhone 4's and I'm having this problem on all 3 of them. We upgraded to iTunes 11.4.0.18 and we have Outlook 2010 and it just gets stuck on (Step 3 of 7) Syncing Contacts. We left it running overnight and it was still stuck. When this happens the progress bar keeps moving making you think it is working, but it is stuck.
I wish someone from Apple would help. We just ordered iPhone 6 phones and we need to backup so we can restore our old info.

Syncing question using PC and Outlook

Didn't get a response to my first question, so thought I'd try again. I have a Toshiba laptop using Vista Professional and Microsoft Office with Outlook. In both my iPhone calendar and my Outlook calendar I always delete or move any events so that all calendar days are empty prior to todays date. When I sync, everything syncs fine to Outlook, but in my iPhone, every item that is recurring repopulates the dates prior to today. Anyone have any ideas as to why this happens or what I could do about it? Or do you know another site I could ask this question of? Thanks, Gail

Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions...
Since you're experiencing so many issues, try disk cleanup for Windows and see if that makes a difference. You may have a corrupted file somewhere.

Sync iphone 4s calendar to outlook 2010

My 4s calendar syncs with iTunes, but how do I get the calendar to sync with Outlook 2010 on a Windows 7 desktop computer?

Update: I haven't used Outlook until tonight. I just made some calendar entries directly into Outlook, then synced in iTunes. The Outlook enteries showed up on my iPhone calendar.
But, I have a lot of entries on my iPhone, and I want to copy them into Outlook, but they don't copy from the iPhone to Outlook, only vice-versa.
I'd really be grateful for instructions on how to get iPhone calendar enteries to copy into Outlook 2010.
Thanks.

HT4489 How can I synchronize contacts between Apple Address Book/iPhone address book and Outlook (I'm on Mac OX10.7.4 and using Office 2011)?

I appear to have done what I should to move to iCloud on my Mac, MacbookAir, iPhone and iPad. Using Outlook 2011 on the iMac and unable to sync contacts between Outlook and my Apple Address Book and iPhone over the cloud. I gather lots of people have the same problem but some appear to have solved it... any ideas?
Also, in some sync, I managed to duplicate the entries on the Address Book on my Mac, whereas the iCloud Address Book is ok. How can I replace the Address Book on my computer with the one on iCloud?
Thank You for any help!

Hi Lucy, I had the same problem with Outlook data sync. Once you've enabled iCloud all your contacts are moved to iCloud and are no longer stored on Mac, that's why Outlook cannot reach them - there is simply nothing to reach as data physically stored in cloud.
I use SyncMate to solve this problem. This app allows connecting and syncing numerous devices and accounts with your Mac and they have recently added iCloud into this list (here the page where they describe sync with iCloud http://www.sync-mac.com/cloud-sync.html ).
This is how I established sync of my Outlook data with iCloud via this app.
1. SyncMate syncs only that data which is located on your Mac so you will need to move your contacts back to Address Book on mac from iCloud and disable iCloud for contacts (in order they were stored on Mac, not in iCloud).
2. You install SyncMate and add iCloud as a new connection (depending on data you want to sync you need to choose "Cloud contacts" or "Cloud calendars" connection in SyncMate wizard and log into your iCloud via SyncMate). Once you've done this, you can sync data on Mac with iCloud via SyncMate.
3. I may assume that automatic sync option is enabled in Outlook preferences (as previously your contacts on Mac were synced with Outlook). If no - please, enable it (got to Outlook preferences).
4. Once all this done, data will be automatically synced betwen Outlook and iCloud (latter via SyncMate). The trick of SyncMate is that data is physically located on your Mac (thus ensuring it will be synced with other devices and accounts SyncMate supports, as I said before, SyncMate works with data which is located on Mac), but you still can have it in iCloud (sync will be performed via SyncMate, no need to enable iCloud itself).
5. And of course, you will be able to sync your iPhone contacts with your Mac (SyncMate supports sync with iPhones also). These contacts will be also synced to Outlook.

ITunes Unknown error (-53) when trying to sync iPhone in Windows 7

I've done a bit of googling and didn't find anything that helped.
I have tried:
- resetting the iPhone
- rebooting the OS
- the disabling power save on the USB
- installing a new version of iTunes (9.0.3.15)
- installing iTunes over itself (9.0.3.15)
- installing an older version of iTunes (9.0.0.70)
The error occurs at the last stage, where iTunes says " Syncing "iPhone <name>" ".
Phone was previously sync'd with my iTunes in XP before going to 7. I did choose to sync only with the new 7 system.
The phone charges fine, and I can pull pictures off of it via Windows.
Ideas?

Jollyman,
to sync your photos, you have a few options.
If you have your TOP iTunes page set to "automatically" sync when logged on, it will search for the photos folder in your iTunes folder on your PC. If you have nothing in there, nothing will come out and whatever is already on your device will be synced to 'nothing' in you folder.
I find it more useful to checkmark on the top iTunes page "manage music and photos manually". This will give you a little bit more control of where and which photos/in which folder on your PC you wish to update/sync.
Once you've checkmarked it, you'll see a pop-up..."are you sure etc...it will erase blah blah blah". Click YES and APPLY (important).
Now when you click in the left sidebar on your device's name (iPod, iPhone...whatever), click on the icon itself to take you to your device's homepage. In the top menu choose PHOTOS and choose in the dropdown menu the folder where you wish to keep ALL your pics/320x480-Images/Photos/ETC. that you have made your DESTINATION folder for UPDATES. This is important, because every time you'll sync your hardware, iTunes will search for that folder to locate any new updates/additions to that folder and considers it an update/sync. So make sure you always have ALL the things in that folder that you wish to see on your iPhone/iPod or whatever you are trying to update/sync.

Sync with Vista Business and Outlook 2007

My old systems we running XP and Outlook 03 but I have recently upgraded to Vista Business and Outlook 2007. Since upgrading I have not be able to get either my contacts or calendar to sync. I have tried everything that I have come across in this forum and elsewhere but so far nothing has worked. I have the latest version of both iTunes and iPhone software. At this point it will not sync in either direction. Even though it says it is syncing it only takes about 10 seconds and nothing actually syncs. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

If possible create a new user
Once in the new user, Launch iTunes and Set it up
Close out of iTunes
Launch Outlook set it up without Email support so Outlook 2007 will be open
Once this is done Add at least 1 contact and 1 Calender Event to Outlook 2007
Once this is done assuming your iPhone has contact and Cal information on it, Go ahead and go into ITunes and Set the Info Tab to Sync to Outlook for Contacts and Cals, And report what happens.
If this works. Then there is an issue with the Data in Outlook on other account.

Syncing contacts between E71 and Outlook

Hi there
I have a brand new E71, and a thing of joy it is. One small thing about PC Suite syncing though: there are numbers in the phone that just don't make it into my Outlook contacts. I have PC Suite version 7.0.8.2 and Outlook 2003, on a Windows XP laptop (HP model). I've copied all my SIM contacts to the phone memory, and done a resync... but there are still a small handful of contacts on the phone that contain a phone number - but the phone number simply does not appear in the corresponding contact in Outlook. I've done a couple of variations on syncing chanding the direction from phone to PC, and then from PC to phone, but that also seemed to make no difference. Searched all over the forum and the Nokia site for help, but to no avail.
It's irritating rather than mission critical but suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
And a second query: why do I get so many duplicates as a result of syncing - never used to happen with my 9300. Any way to stop it happening. I now have six or seven versions of some contacts both on the phone and in the Outlook contacts, and the only way I can see to fix it is manually, which will be a long and tedious process.
Thank you for any help!

E71 firmware version 4.** Latest .PC Suite Version 7.1.40.1 PC Connectivity Solution: Version 9.45.0.0 Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver: Version 7.1.23.0 Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP 32-bit Edition, Service Pack 2 Language: English Language for non-Unicode programs: English Detected Bluetooth stacks: - Microsoft (Version: 5.1.2600, Build: 2180).
I connect via Bluetooth.
The connection between the phone and PC is good. The contacts in PC suite are updated correctly.
Problem: New contacts in the E71 is not added to the contacts folder in Outlook 2007, It used to work. I think it stopped working after the PC suite update some time ago because that was the only change I remember. I rechecked settings in PC Sync and no change. I can see when the phone connects to PC Sync on the phone and in PC Sync. The changes just stay 0. I do make sure that keypad is locked and phone not in use when synchronizing. Its a great phone, please help.
